Are looking for the COMING OF JESUS CHRIST in the World Without End or looking forward to life going back to ‘normal’ in this world? (Matthew 24:1-4, 29-30) (1 Thessalonians 4:16-17) (Revelation 1:7-8, 11:18).
JESUS says: “Remember Lot’s wife” (Luke 17:32)?
Lot’s wife loved life so much in Sodom and Gomorrah that she
had to have one last look, but it was not to be, because she turned into a
pillar of salt (Genesis 19:26).
We must not to look back on this earth to the LUSTS,
PLEASURES, AND PRIDE OF LIFE, in other words, the “pollutions” of this world
because Peter, a disciple of Jesus warned, saying:
“[FOR IF AFTER THEY HAVE ESCAPED THE POLLUTIONS OF THE WORLD]
through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, they are again
entangled therein, and overcome, [THE LATTER END IS WORSE WITH THEM THAN THE
BEGINNING]” (2 Peter 2:20).
“[TAKE HEED, BRETHREN, LEST THERE BE IN ANY OF YOU AN EVIL
HEART OF UNBELIEF, IN DEPARTING FROM THE LIVING GOD]. But exhort one another
daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the
deceitfulness of sin. For we are made partakers of Christ, if we hold the beginning
of our confidence stedfast unto [THE END]” (Hebrews 3:12-14).
JESUS also says: “No man, having put his hand to the plough,
[AND LOOKING BACK], is fit for the Kingdom of God” (Luke 9:62).
“[IF ANY MAN WILL COME AFTER ME], [LET HIM DENY HIMSELF], and
[TAKE UP HIS CROSS DAILY], and [FOLLOW ME]” (Luke 9:23).
“And he that taketh not his cross, and followeth after me, is
not worthy of me” (Matthew 10:38).
“He that loveth his life shall lose it; and [HE THAT HATETH
HIS LIFE IN THIS WORLD SHALL KEEP IT UNTO LIFE ETERNAL]. If any man [SERVE ME,
LET HIM FOLLOW ME]; and [WHERE I AM, THERE SHALL ALSO MY SERVANT BE]” (Matthew
12:24-26).
“Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and
broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in
thereat; because strait is the gate, and [NARROW IS THE WAY, WHICH LEADETH UNTO
LIFE], and [FEW THERE BE THAT FIND IT]” (Matthew 7:13–14).
“[IN MY FATHER’S HOUSE ARE MANY MANSIONS]: if it were not so,
I would have told you. [I GO TO PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU].
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again,
and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
[AND WHITHER I GO YE KNOW, AND THE WAY YE KNOW].
Thomas saith unto him, ‘Lord, we know not whither thou goest;
and how can we know the way?’
Jesus saith unto him, ‘[I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE
LIFE: NO MAN COMETH UNTO THE FATHER, BUT BY ME]’” (John 14:2-6).
“[NO MAN CAN COME TO ME], except the Father which hath sent
me draw him: [AND I WILL RAISE HIM UP AT THE LAST DAY]” (John 6:44).
“These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might
have peace. In the world ye shall have [TRIBULATION]: but be of good cheer; I
have overcome the world” (John 16:33).
“[FEAR NOT, LITTLE FLOCK]; for it is your Father’s [GOOD
PLEASURE TO GIVE YOU THE KINGDOM]” (Luke 12:32).
“I am with you alway, [EVEN UNTO THE END OF THE WORLD]. Amen”
(Matthew 28:20).
